Assessment and Etiology of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder in Boys and Girls
Behavior Genetics - Tập 37 - Trang 559-566 - 2007
Eske M. Derks, Conor V. Dolan, Jim J. Hudziak, Michael C. Neale, Dorret I. Boomsma
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) are more common in boys than girls. In this paper, we investigated whether the prevalence differences are attributable to measurement bias. In addition, we examined sex differences in the genetic and environmental influences on variation in these behaviors. Teachers completed the Conners Teacher Rating Scale-Re...... hiện toàn bộ
A Swedish Population-Based Multivariate Twin Study of Externalizing Disorders
Behavior Genetics - Tập 46 - Trang 183-192 - 2015
Kenneth S. Kendler, Sara Larsson Lönn, Hermine H. Maes, Paul Lichtenstein, Jan Sundquist, Kristina Sundquist
In epidemiological and twin populations, prior interview studies have identified an externalizing spectrum of disorders. Could this be detected utilizing objective registry data? In 20,603 twin pairs from the Swedish Twin Registry, we obtained information from national medical, criminal and pharmacy records on drug abuse (DA), criminal behavior (CB) and alcohol use disorders (AUD). Multivariate tw...... hiện toàn bộ
Blood group genes and negro-white ability differences
Behavior Genetics - Tập 3 - Trang 263-270 - 1973
John C. Loehlin, Steven G. Vandenberg, R. Travis Osborne
Data on samples of 40 and 44 Negro adolescents from two twin studies were used to test Shockley's hypothesis that blood group genes more characteristic of European than African populations would tend to be associated with good performance on cognitive tests within the U.S. Negro population. This was not found to be the case. This result may not, however, be a very strong test of the genetic basis ...... hiện toàn bộ
The Environments of Adopted and Non-adopted Youth: Evidence on Range Restriction From the Sibling Interaction and Behavior Study (SIBS)

Homeostatic drive counteracting selection for positive and negative phototaxis and geotaxis inDrosophila pseudoobscura
Behavior Genetics - Tập 6 - Trang 327-341 - 1976
Howard Levene, Theodosius Dobzhansky
Tested in Hirsch-Hadler mazes,Drosophila pseudoobscura is on the average geoneutral and photoneutral. Strongly geo- and photopositive and geo- and photonegative populations can be obtained by artificial selection, but upon relaxation of the selection they tend to relapse toward neutrality. This genetic homeostasis is due to natural selection favoring neutrality. Experiments are described in which ...... hiện toàn bộ
Performances of inbred and outbred laboratory mice in putative tests of aggression
Behavior Genetics - Tập 17 - Trang 87-96 - 1987
Sandra E. Jones, Paul F. Brain
A variety of situations commonly used to assess aggression in laboratory rodents was studied in two outbred varieties and six inbred strains of mice. The situations investigated included attacks on anosmic TO-line standard opponents by males from individual housing, from pairings with females, or after exposure to electroshock. Lactating females were studied in similar tests. Locust killing (preda...... hiện toàn bộ
Genetic similarity theory: A reply to Mealey and new evidence
Behavior Genetics - Tập 15 - Trang 575-582 - 1985
J. Philippe Rushton, J. H. Russell
Mealey's criticisms of genetic similarity theory (GST) (Rushton,et al., 1984) are rebutted as either based on a misreading of its claims or a failure to grasp the nature of such theorizing. We argue that, if a gene can ensure its own survival by acting so as to bring about the reproduction of any organism in which copies of itself are to be found, then GST is a worthwhile alternative to kin select...... hiện toàn bộ
Adolescent Externalizing Psychopathology and Its Prospective Relationship to Marijuana Use Development from Age 14 to 30: Replication Across Independent Longitudinal Twin Samples
Behavior Genetics - Tập 50 - Trang 139-151 - 2020
Stephanie M. Zellers, Robin Corley, Eric Thibodeau, Robert Kirkpatrick, Irene Elkins, William G. Iacono, Christian Hopfer, John K. Hewitt, Matt McGue, Scott Vrieze
Externalizing psychopathology in early adolescence is a highly heritable risk factor for drug use, yet how it relates to marijuana use development is not well-characterized. We evaluate this issue in independent twin samples from Colorado (N = 2608) and Minnesota (N = 3630), assessed from adolescence to early adulthood. We used a biometric latent growth model of marijuana use frequency with data f...... hiện toàn bộ
Morphometric studies in inbred and hybrid house mice. VI. A genetical analysis of brain and body size
Behavior Genetics - - 1985

Recombinant congenic strains of mice from B10.D2 and DBA/2: Their contribution to behavior genetic research and application to audiogenic seizures
Behavior Genetics - Tập 22 - Trang 685-701 - 1992
Benoît Martin, Catherine Marchaland, John Phillips, Georges Chapouthier, Colette Spach, Roland Motta
Recombinant congenic strains (RCS) represent a series of related strains, each of which carries a small fraction of the genome of one strain (“donor” strain) on the genetic background of another strain (“background” strain). Recombinant inbred strains (RIS) are commonly used to identify major gene segregation and linkage and associations between behavior and quantitative trait loci, whereas recomb...... hiện toàn bộ
